"They pass many islands, and at all of them they weigh the earth there against the earth they took with them--the 2 never have the same weight.

Until they come to the Moluccas, to that 1 island--there the earth weighs as much as the earth of their own country, and there they stay...." M. Dermoût

Venezuelan makeup artist returns home, describes torture during El Salvador detention A makeup artist who became the face of more than 250 Venezuelan migrants deported by the U.S. to El Salvador's most notorious prison arrived home to his family on Wednesday after what he described as "an encounter with torture and death."

All 3 of us have shed tears the past couple weeks over our hero/ines passing on. Me, performance poet Andrea Gibson. Teen, Anne Burrell. Hubs, Ozzy Osbourne.

These were all such unique individuals who embraced life & lived out loud with courage. Rest in power.

Perfection.

I have sincere doubts that all of the men they deported to that horrible place are in fact gang members or criminals.

Yes. And human trafficking. And violating due process.

We shouldn't be deporting anyone to a nation that isn't their own IMHO!! Let alone to this meat grinder mega prison!!

Can write of habeus corpus be filed? He has to get out of there.
